Chapter 616: Cheng Yu Asks Ying to Fight Long Xiang

The moment Cao Cao sat down on the case, an attendant immediately stepped forward and presented a silk book pen and inkstone.

In the interval between the inner servants studying ink, Cao Cao raised his eyes and saw Han Hao at the door of the tent, so he waved his hand and ordered:

"Yuan Hei came just in time, quickly sent someone to Yuyang to give an order, and ordered Xiaoxian (Mao Jue) and Deqi (Cai Mao) to lead the warships south, and drive Ganning's sailors to the south of Xinye, so as to ensure that no one interferes with my march into Yuxian County."

"Yui."

Han Hao clenched his fists to receive the order, but stood in place and stopped talking.

Cao Cao's insight was amazing, he frowned slightly when he saw this, and asked curiously: "What else does Yuan Hei do?" ”

"Amount"

Han Hao hesitated slightly, and then nodded and replied: "There is an urgent report from Xu Du, Long Xiang led tens of thousands of troops out of Huainan, and has passed through Runan to the border of Yingchuan, and the defenders of Xinji County were caught off guard, and they have gained it."

"What?"

Cao Cao suddenly slammed the table case, and slapped the case over a few times with too much force, and the Mozi in the inkstone was also knocked over, splashing countless black spots on his robe, and the inner servant knelt and trembled in fright.

In fact, the information had been sent for half an hour, and Han Hao did not report it but waited for Cao Cao to take the initiative to ask, which was Cao Cao's special explanation in Wancheng.

Cao Cao was deeply impressed by the battle of Guandu, and he knew that the weaker side would constantly harass him, so that the superior general would be distracted from the frontal battlefield, and then affect the judgment of the main general.

Sure enough, Cao Jun was assembling in Wancheng, and news of Changba's rebellion came from Xuzhou.

Zhang Liao did not want to be an enemy of Guan Yu, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the East China Sea to quell the rebellion, but unfortunately Cao Cao refused.

Liu Bei was the lord of Xuzhou, and Cao Cao thought it reasonable for him to leave his minions in Xuzhou, and Changba's first rebellion in the East China Sea was in response to Liu Bei's rebellion in Runan.

The rebellion at the juncture of the Cao-Liu War clearly shows that Changba is Liu Bei's diehard.

Cao Cao thought that Changba was not worried, but only sent an envoy to Xuzhou to meet the assassin Dong Zhao, and ordered him to summon Zang Ba, Sun Guan and others to quell the rebellion, and did not hope that these heroes would really contribute.

Even if Zang Ba, Sun Guan and other Taishan generals still choose to watch Changba from the wall, and wait until Cao Cao defeats Guan Yu and Liu Bei, and then slowly clean up Changba.

Unless it is a big event, there is no need to report it in time to affect Cao Cao's military decision-making.

During Cao Cao's pacification of Hebei, he also issued this kind of order, and it happened that Han Hao was in charge, and it was Sun Quan who attacked Shouchun halfway.

With Sun Quan's previous experience, Han Hao did not completely implement it and did not report it this time, but told Cao Cao that something was wrong with his expression.

Xu had 30,000 garrisons and 30,000 Tuntian soldiers, and Cao Cao didn't have to worry about a sneak attack by thieves.

However, Long Xiang had a precedent of successfully attacking Jiangdong, and the Xinji County he captured was only a few dozen miles away from Xudu, so Cao Cao had to pay attention to such a person.

"Long Xiang. Could it be Liu Bei's people? Impossible, absolutely impossible."

Cao Cao's sleeve robe danced slightly, frowning and shaking his head to comfort himself.

The generals in the big tent suddenly looked at Zhang Liao, as if to say that you have been in Hefei for several months, and you have the most say in this matter.

The burning eyes around him saw that Zhang Liao's scalp was numb, so he had to stand up and analyze for Cao Cao.

"The last general was in Hefei for a few months, and he didn't find out that Long Xiang had dealings with Liu Bei, he kept saying that he wanted to defend Huai and protect himself, and at this time he replaced Sun Quan and got Jiangdong, how could such strength be subservient"

"What Wen Yuan said is very true, many people say no, but what they do is the opposite, I don't believe that Long Xiang has no ambition, he wants to take advantage of my decisive battle with Liu Bei to make a profit, how can he let this man succeed?"

Cao Yue said that his eyes became sharper and sharper, staring at Zhang Liao Zhengse and said: "Wenyuan and Long Xiang are familiar with each other, but they can lead their troops and gallop to help Xu Du, the other army has traveled a long distance, and the transportation of grain and grass must be a big problem, this is a good opportunity to be ashamed."

"The Forehead Will Do Duty"

Cao Cao ordered his general, and Zhang Liao had to take the order hard, but he put a big question mark on the former shame.

The deeds of 800 and 100,000 are often mentioned in Cao Ying, but Zhang Liao prefers White Wolf Mountain.

Because he knew that in Hefei back then, his bravery was only one aspect, and in the end, he was able to repel Sun Quan's 100,000 people, and Long Xiang played a big role.

Long Xiang had no rules to follow in his use of soldiers, and Zhang Liao had no confidence to repel this opponent.

Fortunately, Zhang Liao is very different from Yu Ban, he treats people generously and is very popular in the army, Cheng Yu and Han Hao saw Zhang Liao's face embarrassed, and stood up one after another to relieve him.

"Prime Minister, Guan Yunchang is slightly superior in martial arts, and it is more appropriate for General Zhang to stay here, so that he can return to help like a knife and kill a chicken, and the last general is willing to go on behalf of General Zhang."

"What Zhong De said is very true, besides, Long Xiang led his troops to the north by boat, and the grain and grass were also transported by water, so it was not easy for General Zhang to intercept the grain."

"The rebellion in Jiaxian has just been quelled, and I really can't bear Zhongde Lawton, besides."

When Cao Cao said something to comfort Cheng Yu, he was suddenly awakened by Han Hao's words, so he changed the topic and asked eagerly: "What did you say, Yuanhei?" The waterway that the dragons, horses, grain and grass all walked? Could it be that Lu Su's naval army withdrawn from Jingzhou has returned to Huainan and made a detour to our rear? What does he Sun Quan eat? With such a huge warship transiting through Runan, why didn't Li Wenda, as a Taishou, say a word? ”

"Amount"

Han Hao was stunned when he heard this, and after sorting out his thoughts, he clasped his fists and replied: "Sun Quan's water army is gone. The Lusu fleet naturally went wherever it wanted, as for Li Taishou. It may be that he was ordered to rush to the aid of Fancheng and did not pay attention to the county."

"Hiss"

Hearing Han Hao's reminder, Cao Cao suddenly realized.

He asked Li Tong to support Cao Ren at any cost, Li Tong had been staying in Jingzhou during this time, so naturally the fortification of Huainan was not enough, and no one guessed that Long Xiang would send troops.

"Wenda is excusable in order to save Fancheng, so Sun Zhongmou can't make a mistake, there is no navy and warships and no cavalry? Long Xiang led tens of thousands of troops to attack Xudu, no matter Huainan and Jiangdong, they must be empty, and they don't know how good the opportunity is."

"Prime Minister."

Jia Xu took Cao Cao's words and offered a plan: "Maybe Sun Quan doesn't know the emptiness of Huainan, and Long Xiang is quite able to use tactics, in order to ensure that everything is foolproof, except for General Cheng to lead troops back to help, he should send someone to Yuzhang to inform him, once Sun Quan sends troops to recapture the lost territory, Huainan's troops will not attack and retreat, you still hurry up to take Jingzhou." ”

"Wenhe's words are exactly what I want."

Cao Cao nodded, instructed Cheng Yu, and asked Han Hao to send someone to Nanchang to deliver the message, and he knelt down again and began to write a letter to Guan Yu.

At this time, Cao Ying's top and bottom obviously didn't pay attention to Long Xiang, thinking that with his tens of thousands of people, it would be no problem to attack Xinji County, and it would be a fool's dream to conquer Xudu.

Cao Jun in Jingzhou was like this, and the civil and military officials in Xu Du also had this mentality, only the general Xiahou Tang was full of anger, and he wanted to send troops to meet the opposition of his ministers.

Xun Yu and the others persuaded hard, and Xiahoudun pointed at the one-eyed and gritted his teeth.

"Xun Lingjun, if you are also destroyed, will anyone praise 'Weimei'? If the enemy is close at hand, and there are not as many troops as the defenders, will you not be able to hold out? ”

"This"

Xun Yu was so choked that he couldn't speak, and heard Xiahoudun continue to add.

"Just now I got the urgent report from the sentinel, Long Xiang is leading his troops to Yingyin, if Yingyin is also obtained for him, won't it cut off our contact with Mengde? Do you really think I'm a personal vendetta? ”

"How could I doubt that Yuan makes character? It's just that the scouts have rushed to Jingzhou to report to the prime minister, and the prime minister will inevitably respond when he hears the news, so it is better to wait until the reinforcements arrive near Xudu, and then it is not too late for the general to send troops to attack."

Xun Yu still remembers Lu Bu's sneak attack on Yanzhou, at that time, all parts of the country were also restrained by Chen Gong because of their hurry, and in the end, he still held Juancheng firmly and let Cao Cao turn the tables, Xun Yu didn't want Xiahoudun to be restrained by Long Xiang at this time.

Sorry to make everyone wait for a long time, today began to resume the update, rural related customs are more cumbersome, so the delay is longer, but this is a tradition of the Chinese, there will be inheritance with participation.

The author Jun once again clenched his fists for the break.
